Works towards P0619R4/#99985.
- std::uncaught_exception was not previously deprecated. This patch
deprecates it since C++17 as per N4259. std::uncaught_exceptions is
used instead as libc++ unconditionally provides this function.
- _LIBCPP_ENABLE_CXX20_REMOVED_UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION restores
std::uncaught_exception.
- As a drive-by, this patch updates the C++20 status page to
explain that D.11 is already done, since it was done in
578d09c1b195d859ca7e62840ff6bb83421a77b5.
This patch is based on the suggestion by @ChuanqiXu on discourse
(https://discourse.llvm.org/t/alternatives-to-the-implementation-of-std-modules/71958)
Instead of making a module partition per header every header gets an inc
file which contains the exports per header. The std module then includes
all public headers and these inc files. The one file per header is
useful for testing purposes. The CI tests whether the exports of a
header's module partition matches the "public" named declarations in the
header. With one file per header this can still be done.
The patch improves compilation time of files using "import std;" and the
size of the std module.
A comparision of the compilation speed using a libc++ test
build/bin/llvm-lit -a -Dstd=c++23 -Denable_modules=std libcxx/test/std/modules/std.pass.cpp
Which boils down to
import std;
int main(int, char**) {
std::println("Hello modular world");
return 0;
}
and has -ftime-report enabled

It's possible to use the std module in external projects
(https://libcxx.llvm.org/Modules.html#using-in-external-projects)
Tested this with a private project to validate the size of the generated files:
